'Tell the dreamers to dream'

Tell the dreamers to dream
A better world for us
Where we can find
An expression of existence
Those longing moments
In a world of shifting sands
Lonely stars that shimmer
In the distance of the dark
For music in the cold night air
A wafting for wings that cannot fly
A chorus of hymns to sleep by
An ambrosia to sip
With loves that never die
A remembrance that heals
A tomorrow that brings
Where dreams can fly
With corn in the fields
And honeybees in perfect skies
And oceans to sleep beside
As mighty ships sail by
When will those dreamers dream
Those dreams for us
So we can know
All the rest
Of how to be
In a better world for us
